The mysterious journey begins with becoming a pirate

"Let's talk about the problem just now." The Laplace demon continued when he saw Elok's silence.

“That question is more worthy of exploration.”

"No, no, no. I don't think so." Alok quickly refused.

He didn't want to get stuck in an endless process of answering questions. It's best to send this great god away as soon as possible.

It didn't seem malicious, just curious. And also very curious about me.

But I was less curious about him than alert.

Although I also really want to know what Laplace's Demon is, the current situation is obviously a little weird.

He meant no harm, and I didn't want to kill him. It would be more correct to leave it as soon as possible.

"Why not. Shouldn't we explore?? Shouldn't we explore the answers to all questions? Shouldn't we explore the world?" Laplace Demon asked seriously.

"Not all questions require searching for answers." Alok gave a reason, interrupting Laplace Demon's numerous questions.

"Then what questions don't need to be answered? What questions don't need to be explored?" The Laplace demon was still asking endlessly.

Alok's head was a little big and his scalp was a little numb. After thinking for a while, he remembered some unsolvable paradoxes he encountered in his previous life.

So, he bit the bullet and said:

"Then let me ask you a question. Can you tell me the answer?"

"Okay!" Laplace Demon said straightforwardly.

"Okay, I asked a question. Listen carefully." Alok cleared his throat. Continue to ask:

"If a person lies, his nose will grow longer immediately, and only lying will make the nose grow longer. Then if this person says, 'My nose will grow longer soon,' what will happen??"

"Chickens and eggs lay eggs, so let me ask you, which came first in the world, the chicken or the egg??"

Alok looked at the Laplace demon with a smile. I want to see how it solves such a paradox.

He also wanted to continue asking about the "time paradox" and the "barber paradox".

But before he could ask, he already noticed that the Laplace demon suddenly fell into a sluggish state, and its eyes, one big and one small, suddenly began to rotate around its nose at high speed.

After a moment, it suddenly fell into a fit of madness, and its entire body began to twist continuously. It seems that the entire body is composed of irregular and ever-changing curves. The whole body rises and falls like waves.

Alok was startled by such a strange scene.

What's going on? ? I just asked a question.

Before he could react to what the current situation was like, he saw the Laplace Demon's body began to rotate and collapse toward the two eyes on its head.

After a few seconds, only a gem emitting a dark light was left in place.

The gem is like the astral body of the occultist, with a black background. The seven-colored lines rotated crazily on the gemstones, forming a vortex that looked very uncomfortable.

This looks like a crystal. The crystallization of Laplace's demon.

ah! ! This~~~~

What's the meaning?

Alok was stunned. I'm just asking you a question. I want to make you look bad. How come you turned into a crystal? ?

I didn't want to kill you.

You died on your own, not caring about my business! !

El, who was standing on the tree, was also stunned. The owl's big eyes almost popped out of his head. My neck was stretched so long that I almost couldn't hold on to the branches.

Damn it, the legendary Mouth Escape! ! !

In the time it took to talk, he killed the fourth-level Laplace demon, known as the most dangerous one. .

Until she fell from the tree with a "thud" sound. Only then did he come back to his senses.

Then he climbed up from the ground with a strange scream, turned into a human form, patted his butt, walked to the fire with a ferocious expression, and picked up the crystal.

The moment she took it, she was attracted by the ever-changing and rotating crystal.

Looking at this crystal gives people a feeling of wanting to find out. I want to explore what is at the center of the vortex.

She carefully observed this crystal that was like a work of art and admired:

"What a beautiful thing. This crystal can make a lot of money. I heard that things in the field of mystics are very valuable. This thing can be sold for at least four to five thousand gold coins, which is 2,000 starlight coins.

She looked at Alok in confusion, and asked full of doubts: "How did you do it? I find that I can't see through you more and more. Do you know how to deal with the Laplace Demon?"

"Ah? I don't know either." Faced with El's question, Alok spread his hands innocently.

"I didn't want to kill it. I just asked a question. Who knew it would be like this!!! It's none of my business."

"Mysterious, forget it if you don't tell me." Il looked at the crystal, then looked at Alok and rolled his eyes and replied.

"I really don't know." Alok argued immediately.

Then, he waved his hand indifferently and continued:

"Forget it, now that it's come to this. Just kill it. I think it's better to keep this crystal for your own use. Didn't you say that many skills of occultists and witches are compatible? Maybe make a staff. It'll be better than your 'Lenovo Wand'."

"It's not just a little better? It's a lot better, okay? This is a level four thing, mid-level!" Il held up the art-like crystal in front of Airok and corrected him.

But she suddenly raised her head, looked at the stars in the sky, and said with some hesitation:

"But it's yours. It's not mine."

"Calame's Tempest is still mine. Anyway, I keep it in my pocket to gather dust when I'm not using it." Elok curled his lips and said.

"Ha! I knew it. My brother loves me the most. Don't worry, I will take good care of this thing. Hahaha~~~" El was as happy as a child who got a new toy.

No, she was just a child. He just looks a little more mature. She is only 14 years old.

Alok looked at the crystal, groped his chin and said:

"I have to let Little Bear make this into an activated item. Hmm, what will it look like?"

Suddenly he had a glimmer of inspiration and said:

"How about making a pistol? My silver pain is getting worse and worse. I have to find a long-range strike weapon."

"Uh~~Huh? Pistol?" El's expression instantly became dull. The corners of his mouth twitched and he asked:

"Make Laplace's demon crystal into a pistol??? Don't you think it's a waste of resources?"

"Huh?? Really? Isn't it possible?" Alok asked doubtfully.

"It's not impossible~~~It's just that it's hard to imagine an extraordinary pistol in the field of mystics." Ir frowned slightly and said with some reluctance. "If it really does exist... whether it can have the desired effect is another question."

Alok scratched his head in confusion and continued to ask:

"Is that so? Can it be made into a magic wand? How about a fairy wand? But it feels strange for a grown man to hold a fairy wand."

Elle slapped his head in despair.

In fact, something like a magic wand is most suitable.

Or small jewelry necklaces, bracelets, brooches. It will be all right.

But what the hell is this fairy wand? ?

She said desperately:

"Stop, stop, stop~~Okay. Don't start making associations anymore. Your ideas are very dangerous."

"I remember that there are some records about the Lapras demon in one of the witch's inheritance books. I'll check it out when I go back to the Dark Moon Forest. Let's talk about it then. Let's seal the crystal with the 'spiritual power net' first. Leave it there. We’ll discuss it later.”

"Hmm~~Okay." Alok agreed after a moment.

"There are very few records and descriptions of the Laplace Demon in the illustrated book. It only mentions their danger and extreme rarity. Are you sure there is a record about the Laplace Demon in your inheritance book?"

Hearing Alok's question, Il nodded in confirmation and replied:

"Of course. It seems to be a book about the art of origami. I glanced at it in the library, but I am currently studying curses, straw doubles and scarecrows, so I didn't borrow it."

"That's good." Alok said reassuringly.

"Well~~I'm going to go to bed. There's still a little time until dawn. I can catch up on some sleep. Ah~oh~" El said while wiping his eyes and yawning.
